Bring Bowen Back!!!
Gee for Young. Might help both Young and Blair.
As for Ja, I'm perfectly happy if they just make sure the thing's fully healed before bringing him back.
Damn! This sucks.
I wonder if Anderson's injury will open up the door to unleash the Gee?
Honestly why waive Temple if Anderson is out 8 weeks? The timing of the one does not compute with the other, if it was a whole day sure, but the timing involved here just looks terrible, why would you waive people before you have the next days shoot around?
Well, at least he won't hit the rookie wall
I absolutely love Sam Young. I thought he might have been the Spurs primary target in the 2nd round of last year's draft - that is, until it was obvious that "the beast" was available.
With the Grizzlies having drafted Xavier Henry this past draft, and Rudy Gay just signing a long-term deal, there seems to be little room for Young. I wouldn't have an issue with this at all. And of course, the beast would love this acquisition.
I don't know which one would be easier to get but right now Donte Green doesn't exist for the Kings.
Anderson was playing really well, this will be a big blow to our depth. I haven't been impressed with anything I've seen from Gee, Spurs need to make a move for a decent Jefferson backup if they want to keep up their current pace...this really sucks.
I'd love if the Spurs could get Greene or Young (in that order) but this injury is a straight kick to the junction.![]()
Would love to have either one of those guys backing up RJ. Then when JA returns, he can play SG.
Unless the Spurs can bring someone else in, I would think Manu goes to the bench and George moves to the starting lineup. Gino now becomes the backup 3 for many scenarios.
WTH? Where did this come from?
Spurs should try to go after Danny Green.
Please no. The last thing this team needs right now is for Pop to start messing with the lineups. The time sharing/playing time is so solid right now, and things are working great. Plug in Gee for Anderson's minutes, hope for the best, and ride it out.

...“It’s weird how it happened,” point guard Tony Parker said. “He woke up this morning and told us the news, and it was like, ‘Oh wow.’ It’s bad, because he was playing well.”
...Anderson’s absence is likely to open up minutes for fellow rookie Gary Neal, who is undersized for a small forward, and for Alonzo Gee, who has spent most of the season anchored to the bench.
WTF???He didn't look injured at all yesterday!
From a trainer perspective, this could be slightly related. If his body was compensating for the hamstring, there are a myriad of things that could contribute to the stress fracture. This fracture may be the negative definition of Jacob Riis. While a stress fracture could be caused by a mis-step(I once stress-fractured the 4th Metatarsal on my right foot just stepping on a rock, my brother broke the same bone on his left stepping in a hole. The 4th is the most common, followed by the 5th). For James, it's possible that his running gait, his gather and jump motions might have been altered due to compensation. So, in that vein, it's quite possible that his stress might not have been the result of 1 misstep, it could be the result of all the missteps before.
I didn't see, which foot is it? And also, which leg had the hamstring issue?
Damn tough luck I doubt Young will be given up that easily, he showed flashes of pretty good game last year IIRC
better now than later. He seemed to be doing well in our system.
CIA Pop giving his way of his usual DNP's to Rookies.
Just kidding I had no idea actualy. This came out of nowhere. I thought I saw him walking off from the bench at the end of last nights game and he seemed fine. I gess not..
And Gary Neal allthough a pretty good player is not s small forward.
We need Gary Vitti
NOW
Edit: Inserting a pin is a good idea since he makes his living playing basketball.
